Hello! I'm Adrian, and the other cute face in my picture is my former service dog Riley. Both of my service dogs retired to other homes, but I'm quite honestly too lazy to change the picture.

I live with some visible and invisible disabilities. I don't always have the spoons for it, but I am passionate about disability advocacy, particularly people with invisible disabilities and children with disabilities. I'm also passionate about advocacy for people of color, economically disadvantaged people, trans and queer people, and service dogs and their handlers and trainers. I'm learning to use my privilege constructively.

I love to write! I do fiction and poetry as well as largely ignoring two nonfiction blogs I have, one for advocacy and one for food and recipes. My days are shaped by my foster cats, writing, and cooking and eating. In between all of that, I love watching tv and playing Ticket to Ride and other board and card games. (Cards Against Humanity, Dominion, Magic: The Gathering, Seven Wonders, and many others!) I also love to read.

Want to know more? Just ask! I'm pretty open & not shy about politely telling you if I'd rather not answer.
